FOOTBALL Football began early with a new coach and a group of giants just out of high school, together with the Mutt and Jeff team that had fared very well for the past two or three years under the able guidance of Coach George Berg. Spring practice gave the boys a preview of Coach Hale Quandt's new style of football and, to all involved, it looked like an unbeatable system. The spring season closed with Captain Dick Berndt’s team nosing our Captain Boots Derezinski’s club by a 14-13 count. This season started to verify our prediction as the powerful 1500 pound line crushed the preachers of Mission House 21-0. One of the few bright spots in the next three games was Tiny” Neitzcl, who bowled over all resistance w ithout any trouble, to make the majority of tackles. It was evident that our team had been weakened by the loss of Parsons and Kulick, the two first rate quarterbacks who withdrew from school the week before the first game. Then for our homecoming, when Platteville invaded Point, all the energy that had been saved was released. Jimmy, the rabbit” Koehn, who is about the size of a hig jack rabbit and runs like one, went through the opposing line. His elusive swivel hips, driving legs and change of pace are reasons for his being on the all conference team during his first two years of competition. Joe Haidvolg caught passes that would have been a credit to Don Hutson; and George Emmerich plowed from his fullback spot as if he were being prodded with a hot poker. End Stuts” Hanke, who had a great day, made the most spectacular play of the game as he dropped a Platteville ball carrier behind the goal for a safety. After the Pointers had crushed Platteville, they rambled on to win three games in a row. Oshkosh was next to feel the wrath of our Pointers. It was at Oshkosh's homecoming that Dehiinger played Dillinger”. Early in the third quarter he stole the hog hide” and ran it all the way to the Titan’s thirteen yard stripe. From then on, it was Point all the way as 21 points were racked up that last half. 18
